Brand New Sin

Best New Artist

The following was originally published in our Debut section. 

The best thing about this CD is you can put it on and forget that rap-metal ever happened. Brand New Sin are our Brand New Metal Heroes. They take some of the elements of Nu-metal but for the most part they keep it real with an older school metal formula like Soundgarden doing Sabbath, early C.O.C. or Down’s two phenomenal albums. 

You get riffs galore, intense guitar solos, killer power vocals and mind shattering rhythms. Brand New Sin are hard rock's new powerhouse, I can’t imagine many bands that would want to share the stage with these guys, because there are very few bands out at the moment that wouldn’t be blown clear off the stage after the crowd gets a whiff of Brand New Sin's explosive sound. 

If anything this CD give me faith that hard rock hasn’t been entirely taken over by wanna be rappers and mediocre musicians. Brand New Sin sets out to kick your ass from the first moment and I’ll be damned if you don’t come out with badly bruised body when the last note sounds. If you love incendiary guitar leads mixed with gravely vocals and fist pounding rhythms from a band that actually knows how to play their instruments then you gotta pick up a copy of this CD. It will cause serious damage to your ears and warp your fragile little mind. Plus you can play tricks on your friends by swapping it out for their Linkin Park CD’s when they aren’t looking and let them now what hard rock is REALLY all about! 

You may not get many albums like this from major labels in this day and age but you can thank the rock gods for indie labels like Now Or Never Records , who are helping to keep hard rock alive and vibrant with releases like this. The good news is Brand New Sin are here to help save 2002 from totally sucking musically. The bad news is you won’t find them on Ozzfest where they rightly belong, if anyone can give Down a run for their money on the second stage this summer it’s Brand New Sin. That’s ok because you can catch them up close and personal on the road during the summer of 2002 with Fu Manchu and Speedealer.
